don't get me wrong..i like watching you guys do it...but for now i can't afford to do it.
plus, that sv engine doesnt like to be wheelied too long. i did plenty of them on my sv when i had it, and never had a problem with 17,500 miles on, but ive heard lots of stories of guys blowing that engine from doing them. it starves the front cylinder head of oil when the front end is up in the air. its fine for a second or two, but you definately dont want to ride them for a mile.
